The most impressive aspect was the food. The buffet breakfast was fantastic with variety, quality and quantity in equal measure. The new chef was excellent and the evening meals were absolutely delicious, fairly priced, a nice insight into local cuisine and the portions were large to say the least. We left dinner completely stuffed on more than one occassion (and breakfast for that matter)! The room was very clean, tidy and nicely made up everyday. As far as I could tell all rooms had a lovely sea view and just to sit and marvel at the mediteranian in the morning or evening was just the thing to help unwind. The room was just what we were hoping for and we were extremely happy with this aspect of our stay. The pool area was perfect; clean, tidy, peaceful and perfect for enjoying the sun with the right mixture of shaded and sunlit areas. The pool itself was refreshing to say the least, being as it was, unheated while we were there. However, this did not put us off swimming everyday with the added bonus that it helped digest the delights from the previous evening and that morning! The waiting staff in the hotel were fabulous; knowledgeable, friendly, attentive and the right combination of professionalism and personability, which is hard to find. I cant rate them highly enough! The town itself is perfect for a romantic or relaxing trip, with interesting boutiques, beachfront restaurants and scenic walks along the picturesque rocky coast or small beaches; all the while maintaining a slightly more exclusive feel as it contains none of the multistorey souless hotels or throngs of british tourists. Overall, we loved our stay and will almost certainly return to the hotel. We returned home feeling refreshed if a little heavier! Tiny points really but I will mention them for the sake of fairness. Some may find the beds a little firm, We found them comfortable but thats our taste. Lack of a barman in the evenings was evident for most of our stay but I have a feeling that was down to us being there early in the season. No wifi reception in the rooms. As I said these are very minor points and really were hardly noticeable.

Peacefull, beautifull garden and harmonic design, short walking distance to villagr beach, nice restaurants, fantastic botanical garden Jardin Roig, perfect for relaxing family holiday. Would be even better if the swimming pool opened earlier and closed later (opens at 11 and closes at 1900).

Lovely rooms and pool, excellent breakfast, beautiful gardens The air conditioning broke in our room which we reported three times before someone came to have a look. They were very apologetic but seemed unable to attempt to fix it and gave us a fan instead. Considering the high price of the rooms, I would expect an engineer to be called promptly but there was no sense of urgency even though it was very hot.

The reception desk staff were very friendly and helpful especially when an emergency arose.The breakfast buffet was excellent.There is a large pool and attractive gardens. It is very close to the centre of town but it is also quiet and peaceful Some "Superior" rooms overlook the car park and they provide a dispiriting view in an otherwise excellent hotel.. This is not apparent from the hotel description.The hotel has a car park but it is not big enough for all the guests - however parking spaces in the streets nearby are not difficult to find.

The hotel is in a good location easy to walk to the beach. The staff were helpful and moved us to a family room as soon as one became free. Breakfast was excellent. Parking was limited although we got a space. We didn't use the pool because you weren't allowed to use it before 11am or after 7 pm which is a shame.

This hotel is really lovely. I really liked the beautiful courtyard, pool and areas around the hotel. The location was really great as well. I would recommend the restuarant El Sali in Calella de Palafrugell the courtyard is beautiful and the food is really nice and not expensive.

The excellent views and beautiful gardens in which a lovely pool. Food is good and reasonably priced. The staff is helpful and friendly . The entire hotel is refurbished with new furniture, although not totally ready. Some rooms remain in the "old state" . So ask for the new rooms.

Beautiful hotel and rooms. great outdoor yard, pool, table tennis and other stuff our kids enjoyed. breakfast and dinner were great. the hotel supply bath salts, after sun lotions and other pampering things that really make you feel good about the service you receive. it is very quiet and classy hotel. the town was beautiful. bar is a bit expensive. if you are coming with kids, all the beds are in the one and only room.

I thought the welcome was very good, staff were very helpful and very friendly.The grounds were magnificent and the restaurant was clean and very light and bright. Prices were very good. Only complaint was that the room we had although very good we only had a view of a rooftop it would have been nice to have had a view of the gardens and/or swimming pools.

Sehr schöne, gepflegte Gartenanlage miz grossem, sauberen Pool. Die Ausstattung der frisch renovierten Zimmer ist sehr modern mit neu eingerichtetem Bad. Das Hotel ist günstig in Reichweite des Ortskerns und des Strandes gelegen, dabei aber gut mit dem Auto erreichbar und leicht zu finden gewesen. Das Frühstückbufett ist sehr reichhaltig mit frischem Obst und leckeren Croissants. Das Personal ist freundlich und zuvorkommend. Da wir erst um 12 Uhr auschecken mussten, konnten wir auch nach dem Frühstück noch schwimmen gehen. In der Vorsaison gab es für uns keine Probleme, auf dem hoteleigenen Parkplatz zu parken. In der Hochsaison könnten die Parkplätze aber knapp werden. Die Nutzungszeiten des Pools sind etwas eingeschränkt (11 bis 19 Uhr).

Hôtel bien situé, proche du centre ville et de la mer. Chambre récemment refaite, moderne, très bien équipée. Le petit déjeuner, sous forme de buffet est impressionnant et pouvoir le prendre en terrasse au soleil sous le palmier au bord de la piscine est juste paradisiaque ! Pour couronner le tout, le personnel est charmant ... Vivement la prochaine fois !!
